OK seems you’ve some awareness about the problem already. If I can offer my own experience here. I used to react to what people said in a suspicious way. Now I don’t think it is healthy. Better to treat people as innocent before being proven guilty, is my current approach .
Ok so it has become a pattern for you, a habit.
The next time you are with him, try to watch and listen to yourself. Be mindful. Later on write out what happened. Know that habits can be changed. I surprised myself by quitting smoking. That taught me that anything is possible.
Misinterpreting can spoil good relationships so I think it is important you address this.
